Smith Statement on Tax Day

Statement

Congressman Adrian Smith (R-NE) released the following statement on Tax Day:

"As families and businesses across Nebraska file their taxes, the absence of comprehensive tax reform continues to hurt our economy," said Smith. "There is bipartisan recognition our tax code is unnecessarily confusing. This complexity is especially burdensome to small businesses, who often times must commit considerable resources into tax planning and compliance.

"Fundamental tax reform is one of my top priorities on the House Ways and Means Committee. I have heard from Nebraskans about their frustration and lack of faith in the system, and I am fully committed to providing actual solutions which promote simplicity, transparency, and economic growth."

Smith serves on the Ways and Means Committee which has jurisdiction over tax policy in the House of Representatives.
